My goal is 5 so don't feel bad! There really is no pressure! (except the pressure we put on ourselves) ETA: grammadee is awesome at helping you share if you decide that's something you want to do! Thanks much! I'm registered in the Flicker group - and have used it for LOAD - but I will need to try and keep track of product. shhh don't tell anyone, but i never put down my supplies

here's another crate paper video click and still no good look at the paper! unless you count the "gift wrap book" the more i see of it, the less i like it. definitely loving those puffy gold phrases and the cute shaker embellies though!

I read the title as the "tale of Himmler" and I was a little confused and in shock for a second or two...
What a cutie! Wishing you wonderful hours of playing together, purring on your lap and meowing at each other (if you're anything like my mother who likes to "talk" with her cats). my boyfriend and i (who are, admittedly, big weirdos) fall asleep every night to some hitler documentary on netflix. i read it as himmler, too! gramma she's beautiful! sassy brat cats are right up my alley

i haven't read the replies yet, but am interested in reading them. i am not your focus group though, as i buy buy buy and really have outgrown my small space and frankly, don't care but i have been scrapping a ton since march, so i do use a small portion of it!

at the moment i'd say hip kit is my favorite. but they use a lot of amy tangerine, shimelle and dear lizzy, which i tend to not like, so i've never subbed. i'm considering a sub, though, because i typically love their christmas kits and they have nice exclusives. i'm waiting to see new shimelle and dear lizzy to see if i could stand working with it. the new amy tan i actually like for a change and already preordered a bunch.
you could also try out the secret not secret kit club (google if you need more info). i will say that i did all i was supposed to on my end, joined their facebook group, even got an email from the owner about it saying she would try to fit me in at the end of june, and i have never heard another word. so...take that to mean whatever you want it to.
good luck! i hope you find a kit that's the perfect fit for you!

gramma I love all the fishies and seaweed on your snorkeling page; thinking you could take a point for a grid too! I really like the fun border on friends fur-ever and that is seriously the cutest puppy of all time. I love the color scheme and simple patterns on your teddy page; he’s a cutie too I really love the title on the skateboarding spread and all those cool accents! That giant birthday card page is really fun with the color scheme and stacked embellies on the right! kiwigirl the page of your mother is beyond gorgeous! I love all the fabulous texture! Your sweet kitty is so cute and I love the contrast of the bright papers you used with his neutral coloring. The cat veneers are so cute too! I also really love that design you have definitely gotten good use out of the doodlebug this month! MDscrapaholic your pretty dancer page is beautiful! Love the colors and fun technique with the photo. woodysbetty love your retirement album! You did a great job with the pockets (which, I confess, I just can’t wrap my head around)! crystalb so glad you shared some pages because they’re all fantastic! I love the mixed media background on the first one and the detail in the lower corner. Your take on the sketch is great, I could see the sketch right away love the colors you used! On your emerald isle page, I think you can count a ketchup point for june’s be a sun worshiper challenge; love those watercolored rays! I love love the colors on fabulous stars and awesome layering, with a very cute story thrown in! kitbop oh how I wish I had your clustering ability! Love this page so much! I was not crazy about that simple stories collection but seeing this makes me wish I had it grammadee very fun grad pages; love that awesome crayon paper! I like the photo of rocks for his teachers too Linda your albums are fantastic! Thanks for posting them the lego pages with all the bright colors are awesome; you definitely captured the fun and excitement of legoland! I love the mix of autumn, winter and florals you used in the NE album; so perfect! Chinagirl828 I love love that white on white title! What a super sweet kitty photo paired with perfect embellies and that awesome background paper!

i think for me it's ephemera, too. what i finally did with all the random stuff (clips, bows, rubons, etc.) is sort them by type in iris containers (the big 12x12 ones). i obviously have too much of this type of stuff because i have many containers and most are stuffed to the gills!

i would say the "borrowing" from an artist thing really soured my opinion of her, but i do watch her videos occasionally. at least she scrapbooks! quite a bit, actually, if you've ever watched her LO shares she does once a year.

Only 1 week left for July!!! I've noticed that other people posting LOs on the share thread has slowed down, and I too have not been scrapping as much. Do other people find their motivation wanes as the month gets to the end? I have to shake myself off and get into my scrap space! I can get a lot done in a week! yes! for me it's usually the third week where i tend to peter out, then i notice oh crap, only one week left, and get back into my room for one last push at getting things done. doesn't happen every month (for instance i seem to be doing well this month), but it has been a pattern i've noticed. i know Linda posted somewhere she wants to use her stickers, so she started the challenge. i took it to mean alphas or numbers or both, but she'll need to clarify for us. i try and keep a running list of challenge ideas too! love the kraft one, i used to do kraft LOs all.the.time but lately my choice is white. so now i have a surplus of kraft and it will be great to have a lil kick in the pants to use it!

don sounds like you have definitely been a busy little beaver! hope it's not too long before you can get your craft on again my newest random thought: i wonder if retailers are wondering about the sudden run on the tonic/TH stamping platform?

craftykitten you’ve posted some lovely LOs! I love the bright colors on the Warhammer page and how you included a picture of the birthday boy and fun detail shots of the exhibits you saw. Very fun page! On the wedding page, I love all the texture in the title and really fun layered journaling cluster with all the cute little pearls and such—so pretty! Your snake page is great; I love the layered mat, clusters and multi-font title (which I suck at big time). I have to admit that, even though I love snakes, that close-up photo kind of freaked me out, until I checked the other photo and realized it wasn’t actually a giant snake

kiwigirl did you ever get any of those fabrika decorum or whatever they were nuvo-like drops? was using some today and remembered you mentioning you could order from europe. No I never did, do you like them? I thought I had enough Nuvos and really don't need any more! yes, i really do like them. i'm hoping to get more eventually. unlike some people, i don't own every.single.color of nuvos
